Miss Shway

(Shwetha Jayaraj)


Welcome back to Developer land.

So far we have learned:

  • what real programmers use to upload their code for others to collaborate. Using Github.com
  • HTML basics to make a website
  • the tools we can use to edit HTML code in

Group Projects time for 25 minutes

Let me know if you'd like help with your website.


Building Blocks of a Website

!imgFiles/Pasted image 20231010141612.png

  • HTML - the content and "bones" of a website
  • CSS - the decorations, here we can add fancy decorations
  • Javascript - animations can be added here, game-making, scripting, etc..

Step 1. Let's make a visit to neocities.org

Today we are going to start programming in CSS! This makes your website PRETTY! !Pasted image 20231101131959.png

You'll see a lot of interesting website examples here.


Step 2. CSS Building blocks

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets.

  • CSS files are for creating rules for standard designs of every page on your website.

  • Think of a site like youtube.com

    • All the fonts, designs are kept the same on each part of the site.

This is what CSS helps do! It gives decorative rules for the developer to choose from. (especially as we create multiple webpages in our site)


Step 3. Javascript Building Blocks

Every website typically ties in both HTML and CSS with a bit of javascript for some additional flare.

For example: https://codepen.io/sadness97/pen/KKobMWx


We will get around to Javascript in the next class.

For now, keep working in CSS inside of neocities.org!
